by Grant Stoddard
Read the article. It’s hilarious. He’s out testing ‘the world’s finest love doll.’
Here’s some excerpts:
I’m guessing that, at least once per relationship, your partner will ask you if he or she is being used just for sex. Even if you’re inclined to stop humping their leg for a minute and deny, deny, deny, more often than not, their gut instinct is well founded. If this is a recurring theme in your relationships with people, you might consider investing in a Real Doll, a high-end humanoid love toy that is guaranteed to love you long time — or, indeed, any time. A little creepy? Somewhat degrading? Sure, but so is making nice at Thanksgiving with the family of the person you can barely stand to look at anymore.
You’ve probably heard of them via Howard Stern, HBO’s Real Sex or dozens of magazine articles. I hadn’t, and until I visited the company’s website, my impression of a sex doll was an inflatable piece of tarp with a gaping mouth. I couldn’t imagine the depths to which a person would have to sink to hump a glorified Aerobed with a surprised expression. If I think about it too hard, I get terribly sad, even now. But Real Dolls aren’t like that. So insisted my friend David, who said that if I could get a “professional discount” on one, he would split the cost with me on two conditions: a) if he could “use” it on weekends and b) if I got one with “huge tits.”
Just looking at the models on realdoll.com, I found myself incredibly aroused. Not surprising, really. At least aesthetically, Real Dolls live up to their name. If you squint a bit, it’s difficult to discern whether they’re flesh and blood. They’re so realistic-looking, in fact, that the company produced a spinoff site showing the dolls getting it on with each other. People are paying to jerk off to inanimate objects that have been posed to look like they’re fucking. If that isn’t brilliant, I don’t know what is.
The first question that springs to my mind is, “Just who the hell is buying these things?” It turns out I’m not the only one who wonders: that’s the first question on the website’s FAQ page. While the company’s answer is “futurists, artists, art collectors, filmmakers, scientists, health professionals, housewives, you name it,”
You must be a relatively well-to-do perv to own a Real Doll. Female versions start at $5,999, male versions at $6,999; custom options can cost thousands more. That’s a lot of money, especially when you’re probably the only person who’ll ever know about the purchase. But according to the website, a great many of Real Dolls’ customers don’t even use the doll for sex. I’ve been thinking about it, and I could only come up with one economically viable non-sex use: being able to ride in the carpool lane. In the state of California, the minimum fine for traveling in the HOV lane without a passenger is $271. If your synthetic friend fools Ponch and John more than twenty-five times, he or she is actually saving you money. Score!
With curiosity eating me like Ruben Studdard at a breakfast buffet, I got the Real Doll people on the phone, hoping to score a date with one of their girls. Although they were hesitant to let me get freaky with one of their creations, they did say I could “see how I got along” with one of their prototypes that had “been around the block a few times.”
“You know what I want to do with her, right?” I asked the women on the phone.
“Well,” she replied, “just be nice to her, and we’ll see how it goes.”
And here I thought the advantage of a Real Doll was that she’d always be up for it. I talked my photographer friend Aaron into taking pictures of me and hightailed it deep into Orange County. Aaron agreed to take pictures so long as he didn’t have to see my unit.

It’s great fun, trust me.

[...] it was to an old post, one of my most popular. Five days from now, it’ll be two years since I blogged about “the World’s Finest Love Doll.” It was just a humorous story, I thought. But since then, it’s been one of the most popular [...]
COOL DUDE. Quite neat, and as well no one to argue with such as a real one.

that is so pathetic

I’m not agree with you “little troll”, that’s absolutely not pathetic! here you have an another way for having sex and pleasure, it’s like a (very good) sex toy, and in some case, a real person for some people who’re probably more open minded than the others… Take it like an another way of life, you can use theses dolls at your convenience, just for sex, or with more feelings… I think it could be interesting…

Dildo’s dildo’s dildos, look around you, when it pertains to sex toy it’s mostly a 70-30 towards pleasuring her. Even when it’s toys for “him” it’s really for her. These days a woman who uses dildo’s and vibrators and such can do so without scruitny. It’s “hot” it’s “open”, it’s “hip”, it’s “chic”, but when a man gets toys, “pathetic”, “creepy”, “loser”, “crazy”, “yuk”. I have nothing against girls playing with toys, heck i think it’s cool. But ladies, next time you find a cyberskin pussy under your boyfriend’s bed, hold off on the breakups, the insults, the creepoutness and realize that he as well as all us dudes have just as much right to try out different things and be adventurous as you ladies without seeming like creeps. Guys, the next time your girlfriend or wives pull out the “toys for him”, you know, the dildo that’s really for her, break out the Tera Patrick doll and tell her, well since we’re being adventurous…

If you think sex with androids is a bit weird, you’re weird. I’ve been having sex with androids most of my life. Weirder still – All of them looked human.
While US Robotics or Honda Robot are trying to develop the mechanoid systems – realdoll.com has been developing the external package.
Well, all the guys at realdoll.com have to do is team up with US Robotics or Honda Robot, along with a development team from MIT, and we can really start producing androids.
What I want is one that looks like just like me. One that I can send to work at my office desk… while I am away, or send off to parties that I dont want to attend… Hell maybe it can put in a court appearnce or two.

Another thought! How about manufacturing dolls that resemble some of our politicians… There’s a market! Get that #@%%@! out back behind the garage and you can… well, you can do what ever you like with him…

Good one……this stuff is good for lonely bachelors like me.

I just want to know why there are a better selection of gorgeous hunky guy dolls out there for the ladies!

I am not sure about this one, after snagging the fleshlight forbidden that I saw on the website fleshlightcanada.com I can’t see how any other fake pussy can beat it – and that is after trying other good masturbators like the Mieko Vagina. But I still must say very few of these can equal a fleshlight – There is no doubt in my mind, it beats the hell out of most other sex toys for men!

Keep laughing at us so-called “losers”, who were banished to the “friend zone” because we could not be who we were supposed to be, ad you will soon be laughing at yourself!
The love doll will not criticize him after a day at work or feel that having sex with him is beneath her or feel the need to “challenge” him ( since that is really so very
important ). No wonder these guys are buying these dolls!
